KING Hans and Queen Helga of Jutland were once fun loving and adventurous, but now their country is in financial trouble and their lives have become more serious.
If they can persuade their son, Prince William to marry a neighbouring Princess they will be able to form a trade alliance and sort out their money worries. The Prince, however, dreams of going on a great adventure across the ocean. Meanwhile under the sea, Neptune’s daughter, Sirena is after an adventure of her own.
She is curious about the humans she has seen on dry land, especially the handsome Prince who stares out to sea every morning. However, she is not the only one who has an interest in the Prince. The sea witch, Crustacia, also has designs on him, but for a more sinister reason.
Poulner Players present The Little Mermaid at St John's Hall, Ringwood from Wednesday to Saturday.
